🎉 Hey art lovers! Guess what? Shanghai’s amazing Museum of Art Pudong (or MAP for short) is celebrating its anniversary! 🎂 They’re throwing a big celebration called “Flow in MAP,” and you’re invited to join the fun!
Since opening its doors, MAP has been a super cool place where people can see awesome art from around the world and from local artists too. Over the past year, they’ve had over 300 events, both online and in person. That’s a lot of art excitement! 🎨
More than 700,000 people visited MAP this year alone, and nearly 3 million have come since it opened! That’s like the whole city of Paris dropping by to enjoy some art. 😮 People of all ages from China and other countries have explored the museum’s galleries.
MAP isn’t just about looking at art; it’s about learning and having fun too. In 2023, they held nearly 150 education programs. Over 110,000 kids, teens, and even adults joined in to learn more about art. Imagine going to a museum and getting to create your own masterpiece or learn about famous artists! 🖌️
Nearly 10,000 teachers and students visited MAP for special art classes. It’s like taking a field trip to a world where your imagination can run wild! 🌟
This year, MAP had two super cool exhibitions. One was all about Chen Yifei, a famous artist from Shanghai. The other showed masterpieces from the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, France. That’s like traveling through time and countries without leaving Shanghai! ✈️
China is making art education a big part of learning, and places like MAP are leading the way. They want everyone to have the chance to enjoy and understand art. Who knows, maybe you’ll be the next great artist! 🌈
